| '''Chirag Gupta''' is the Indian-American friend of [[Greg Heffley]]. He appeared only as a supporting character in the online and book version, but his role is greater in the film. So far, he appears in: [[Diary of a Wimpy Kid]], [[Rodrick Rules]], [[ The Last Straw]], [[The Ugly Truth]], and [[Diary of a Wimpy Kid: Cabin Fever|Cabin Fever]]. | |
| | |
| ==Overview ==
| |
| | |
| Chirag is a good friend of [[Greg]]'s. According to Greg, he is just as short and stout as he is. He makes a cameo in the first book during his departure party, where he supposedly moved out of state and was to never be heard from again. In ''Rodrick Rules'', however, it is revealed that his parents decided not to move, and Chirag stayed in Greg's neighborhood. Greg and the other students thought it would be funny to pull a practical joke on him before welcoming him back for real. Although the joke starts small, it soon gets to Chirag's attention, and Chirag reports the joke to Vice Principal Roy, who calls Greg up to his office. However, Vice Principal Roy somehow misidentifies the person on the receiving end of the joke and thus Greg gets off the hook rather easily, much to Chirag's chargin. Chirag soon reports the joke to his father, wg stating that Greg has yet to win [[Holly Hills]]' attention, causing Greg to begin the joke. Chirag later lures Greg into the art room and disguises himself as Holly, bringing in several students. When Greg greets him, Chirag removes his disguise and reveals the hiding students who thus witness Greg talking to Chirag. As a result, this ends the joke.
| |
| | |
| In ''The Last Straw'', Greg tries out a new joke that involves people talking quietly in Chirag's presence in order to make him think he was going deaf. However, Chirag quickly reports this to Vice Principal Roy and this ends the joke before it can get out of hand.
| |
| | |
| In [[Diary of a Wimpy Kid: Cabin Fever|Cabin Fever]]'', ''he is seen tripping Greg. The reason this was seen was because he didn't celebrate Christmas, and wouldn't appear on the "naughty" list.

| == Appearance ==
| |
| Chirag was the same age as Greg; he was also in the same grade as him, but was much shorter than him, to the point of which Greg says if grades were based on heights he would have still been in the first grade. Like a lot of people in the book, his nose was extremely long and he had short and stubby hair. His immense ears were circular in shape like Gregory's and he had beady black eyes. In the film, Chirag has a heavy Indian accent. He isn't that short as he was in the book, has short rounded hair instead of short stubby hair, and noticeably large teeth. In the online version he has an afro and an even longer nose compared to the normal book.
